Derby having a second half of the season collapse has been a club ritual for some time. It’s hard to shake that kind of thing off.

Spoke to a Blue Nose today (a rare, decent level-headed one)


I'm happy to support you through your magic mushroom withdrawal.

Spoke to a Blue Nose today (a rare, decent level-headed one) who reckons Derby were nothing special yesterday and he can see them falling away. He said Derby scored break away goals at key moments but Small Heath dominated for long spells.


It's a Rowett team so they're not likely to dominate possession even against the worst teams in the league.

They play in a similar style to us really. Could mean we both last the pace while more eye catching teams like Bristol fall away a bit.

Yep, sounds like them.  You can never beat Blues, only score more goals them.

To their credit, they are actually fighting for their lives, even against Derby according to reports, they never gave up. Saying that, a defeat against us will probably put an end to that. It will be a tough game but a game we should win.

To the folks predicting a 10-12 point tally from the next four, when have we ever gone on a run like that when it really counts?

I think we'll lose to Sheffield United and win at least two of the home games, so I'll say 7-9 points.

November/December 2017. Don't lose on Saturday and it'll be now.

We should beat Sheffield Utd. They are useless. However we let them back from 2-0 down I don't know
